--------------------
After an update this morning, my network manager does not connect to my WPA
Personal, hidden network. After booting up, I wait for the nm-applet to start
showing progress on wifi network connection. It just sits idle. After waiting
for significant amount of time, I manually start the connection (nm-applet ->
'Connect to hidden Wireless Netowork'). Enter the network name, choose Wireless
Security to be 'WPA & WPA2 Personal', enter the password and hit enter. The
connection is established.
Next time I boot, I have to do this all over again. After I do nm-
applet -> 'Connect to hidden Wireless Netowork', I do see my hidden
network name in the 'Connection' list. But when I choose it, and say
connect, It asks me for a WEP password. WPA is not even in the
Wireless Security drop-down anymore.
Following is my wireless hardware:
02:0b.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG
[Calexico2] Network Connection (rev 05)
